Watched 'Darkness' with Anna Paquin, and actually I loved the movie. It is a Spanish movie (as in director and the crew were Spanish) but the movie is in English.
I liked it - it didn't have all the clichés that horror movies usually have especially with haunted houses, families and such.
Enjoyed this one a lot.
Freddy's Dead is the Final Nightmare one, do you mean Wes Craven's New Nightmare?
Watched two last night:
Madhouse(2003) - Dull dull dull. Set in a psychiatric hospital and could have been made so creepy, but failed. Knew what was going to happen from the start. Oh and a lovely positive show of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder added in...
My Name Is Bruce(2007) - Quite disappointing and glad I didn't actually buy this. Hopefully the sequel will be better. It felt like I was watching a cheap made for television film. Sorry Bruce Campbell. I do like how this was all filmed on his home property/land though, I think it was?
Watched two yesterday - 'They Wait' and 'The Gathering'.
Both crappy in their own little way.
'They Wait' had some 'i-can't-believe-that-just-happened' moments, but overall I didn't like it that much. It was mediocre - not horrible, but certainly not great.
'The Gathering' - well, I just don't know what to say about that. The idea was so good, and could have made such a good movie, but I felt like there were two stories going on at the same time -
Spoiler:
the man who was abused by priest, and those who watch bad things happen to everyone
It's like two movies merged together and came up with mish-mash of crap. The first church idea would have been great if the story had been developed better, and with more imagination.
But no, instead it was crap.
